I'm the creator of memcached-session-manager and would like to help in bringing msm and jboss together.

As I'm new to jboss it would be helpful if you could provide a step by step guide how to reproduce it. Starting with the jboss version to download, which files to copy from directory X to directory Z (you copied "default" from where to where?), and also how you're running it.

Otherwise it would take too much time for me and I might do different things than you.

the field log is defined by tomcats ManagerBase which is extended by MemcachedBackupSessionManager. You're right that the inconsistency of log and _log could be fixed. Still, in a normal tomcat installation it does work (as expected), so I wonder what's different in the tomcat bundled with jboss.

Do you have a clue what's wrong here? Can you tell which tomcat version comes with jboss 6?

this really did the trick, the server is now running and connected to two memcache servers. Now I only have to write a quick tes programm. I'm going to post a quick guide here as soon as it is working.

Jboss uses org.jboss.logging.Logger and not org.apache.juli.logging.Log that is why you get the error.

I think to make a jbossweb version you should just add the dependencies to jbossweb and jbosslogging and rebuild your package.

Ok, so jboss does not "bundle" tomcat as-is, but comes with a modified tomcat? Are other things changed besides logging? Is there any patch I can have a look at, or how are the tomcat sources modified?

Great!

Are you interested in a msm version for jbossweb, that can be used out-of-the-box (as JF suggested)?

I'm already working on a new project structure of msm that allows to create a jbossweb version without too much effort.
